Utah Trip!

A couple of weeks ago our family took a trip to Utah to celebrate Christian's grandpa's 90th Birthday. Happy Birthday Grandpa Clive! It was so fun to get all the extended family together to pay tribute to such a remarkable man...and of course his wife, Grandma Bea!

The whole crew - all 43 of us (and 2 more on the way).

Grandma and Grandpa Larson and all the crazy grandchildren!





Aaron's new trick!


Jessie hunting for tadpoles



Most of the cousins went wakeboarding the next day....check out Christian's moves!



Kellie caught a little air


Jess and cousins Kate and Emma

The ride of their lives!!

Aaron...back on the shore...


While in Salt Lake, we spent an afternoon with friend, Tom Rosenberg, at his beautiful home. The kids had a blast swimming, canoeing in the pool, and exploring the river in his backyard. What a beautiful place!






Our family decided to take off and hike up to the Timpanogos Caves. We don't have any pictures from inside, but Jessie had a dream a few days later about a booger cave...I guess that's pretty discriptive of how they look inside! :)





We then took off for a camping trip to Moab. The kids did awesome hiking and camping in such heat...and putting up with all the mosquitos. What gorgeous country!




Our little rock climber!

Wow, looks like you guys really filled your time in Utah with lots of great activities! I can't wait until I have this baby because right now he's making it hard to breathe- which means I don't do a whole lot of climbing, walking, exercise...pretty much anything that exerts too much energy! I wanted to let you guys know that the pictures Jonathan took at the birthday party have been edited and retouched- if you would like to download or print any please visit our blog- larsonlovebirds.blogspot.com
you can click on a link from there- just look for the "Larson Family Pictures" post. There is a really good one of Julie and Kerry with the grandkids! Enjoy- and all your pictures are great- you guys look wonderful!
